A Canadian man who offered a round-the-world airline ticket to a woman who shared his ex-girlfriend's name has been inundated with responses.

Jordan Axani bought the ticket for his then girlfriend, Elizabeth Gallagher, as part of a special deal in March - but they later split.

To claim the ticket, the traveller would have to share her name and have a Canadian passport - but Jordan says thousands of people have replied.

Jordan told Afternoon Edition he was working through the emails and hoped to give the ticket to someone who "always wanted to travel" but lacked the time or money.
